I Know I Am Asking Alot 2day, But I Can't Choose. I Have Zero Motorcycle's Experience!.
BTW We Don't Have Motorcycles Courses In Egypt, You Just Get Someone Who Is Pro And He Will Teach You On Your Bike!
 
I'd say probably not. If you have 0 experience on a bike I would start out on no more than 500cc on a sport bike. Cruiser/standard type a 600 may be OK.

Sport bikes are very sensitive to your inputs (IMO) a bit heavy on the throttle will move you in ways you didn't intend to move.
 
the Monster 696 isn't hugely powerful, so it would be possible to learn on that bike, but there are definitely better choices.

The main reason I couldn't recommend it is that Ducatis are pretty hard expensive compared to traditional "starter" bikes.

buy an old ninja 250, ride it for a year, and then sell it for the same amount you paid. If you never drop it, then good for you. If you drop it 4 or 5 times, then you scratched it up instead of the Ducati you buy next.
